WORLD WITHOUT OIL is a collaborative alternate reality event simulating the first 32 weeks of a global oil shock. The gamemaster set the price of fuel and level of availability for each week, and challenged players to document their lives in this new energy-deprived reality. Players responded with over 1500 in-game stories, expressed in blogs, videos, phone calls, and images, that give WORLD WITHOUT OIL compelling depth and visceral realism. A serious game for the public good, the alternate reality game is being heralded as the first to engage the collective imagination of Internet users to confront a real-world problem - our dependence on oil.

Documentation of Commencement ceremonies. These include speeches delivered by students and honored guests, news releases, photographs, honorary degree citations, emeritus citations, and sometimes interviews with honorees. The College Marshal provides information regarding this year’s Commencement, and documentation of Commencements back to 2011. An historical note: It’s true; Commencement is no longer the all day affair of 1795, during which each graduating senior spoke four times. And we no longer offer a “watermelon cart and grog-stand,” fixtures of Williams’19th-century graduation festivities.

The Oakley Center was established in 1985 to support research across the humanities and social sciences, with a special emphasis on interdisciplinary work. Since that time, it has come to play a vital role in the scholarly life of Williams College. The Center provides a meeting place where faculty and administrative staff can pursue their intellectual and research interests. It sponsors many events and programs throughout the year, some exclusively for faculty and staff and others for the entire campus and the wider public.

Programs especially for faculty include fellowships, colloquia with distinguished visiting scholars and Center-supported faculty research and reading groups. Each semester, about eight faculty Fellows are in residence and participate in a weekly research seminar. Through the Ruchman Fellowship program, two Williams seniors participate in the Fellows' seminar as well. Through the Clark-Oakley Fellowship, offered in conjunction with the Research and Academic Program of the Clark Art Institute, the Center also provides an office and funding for one scholar, from outside the College, who will take part in the programs of both institutions. The Center's public events include occasional conferences and the annual Richmond, Weiss, and Davis Lectures.

Williams Alternative is a student run online news blog/ newspaper at Williams College, which features faculty, student, and alumni articles.. Their mission statement: The Williams Alternative seeks to foster frank and open discussion, polite disagreement, humor, and intellectual liveliness within our campus culture.It is our belief that an excess of social politicization at Williams has led to a state of hypersensitive political correctness and intellectual conformity that stifles individual expression, excludes satire, allows for wild exaggeration, and creates unnecessary tension among different members of the student body.We are not aligned with any political, religious, or social organization. We contain international students, students of color, queer students, straight students, liberals, conservatives, athletes, non-athletes, atheists, agnostics, and religious members.What unites us, apart from our shared humanity, is the common belief that everyone here should feel comfortable putting forward his or her intellectual viewpoint and creative output without fear of reprisal. Only within this framework is genuine diversity possible.

In early 2011, the Kellogg Building Committee and Black River Design, the architect, began design efforts with a thorough evaluation of needs for a project that will house the Center for Environmental Studies and the Zilkha Center for Environmental Initiatives. The Committee determined the program requirements, found opportunities for synergy among spaces, and minimized energy demands of the combined Centers. Integrated Eco Strategy a consulting firm with growing expertise in LBC buildings was hired to help shepherd the college through the LBC process. In February 2015, the building opened. Staff and faculty moved into their offices, student groups started convening in the various meeting rooms, and students soon found their favorite corners in which to study.

The building program maximizes the use of space, minimizes energy and water demand, and uses on-site solar energy and rooftop water collection to produce 100% of the energy and water required for the environmental center. Offices are small, but sized appropriately for their planned use. Larger rooms play triple duty – they serve as classroom and meeting rooms during the academic day, student study spaces and work rooms in the evenings, and social and informal gathering spaces for faculty, students, staff and alumni throughout the year.

Tokyo International University is an internationally focused university located in Kawagoe City in the Greater Tokyo Area of Japan. It was established in 1965 as the University of International Business and Commerce by Taizo Kaneko. The same year, Kaneko sent a request to American universities proposing an exchange partnership. Willamette University President G. Herbert Smith accepted his offer and the exchange program began.
During the 1980s, the University of International Business and Commerce exchange program expanded to partner with the University of Washington, Southern Oregon State College, University of Arizona, Shanxi University and Bath University. A masters program in International Relations and doctoral program in Business and Commerce were established in 1984 and 1988 respectively. In 1986, the name was changed to Tokyo International University, and the exchange program continued to expand into Germany, South Korea, Australia and Sweden. As the partnership with Willamette University also expanded, the Tokyo International University of America opened in 1989 with a location adjacent to Willamette University. Students spend one year on the TIUA and Willamette campuses immersed in American society and the English language. Nearly 100 TIU students participate in the program each year.

With the Burlington Northern Railroad employing many people in our community, we wonder how important trains are based on the history of all of montana. The main reason we have trains is to support our state. We send a lot of supplies to get most of our money so we can stay mostly out of dept. We have stayed mostly out of dept for a long time and if we didn't have the railway we would be in dept more and more every day. And that is why the railway is important.
